[Details] • The printer ID is transmitted when the data in the receive buffer is

developed. Therefore, there may be a time lag between receiving this

command and transmitting the status, depending on the receive buffer

status.

• When the printer ID transmission is specified with (1 = n = 3) or (49 = n =

51), one byte code is transmitted.

• When Auto Status Back (ASB) is enabled using GS a, the printer ID

transmitted by GS I and the ASB status must be differentiated using the table

in Appendix III.
